JBoss doubt

[Smitha Ajay]

Well when i deploy a war in JBoss JBOSS_HOME\server\default\deploy directory - would that war file not explode into a directory structure?
Well it does not happen so when i restart JBoss...
Is this the way JBoss works?
May be that could be a reason why JSP's do not seem to work correctly when i startup JBoss and try loading the welcome.jsp?
Do clarify on the same.
Thanks

JBoss is doing that differently than tomcat. But you can see the exploded files in $JBOSS_HOME/server/$YOURSERVER/tmp/$DEPLOYDIR/$APP
where you have to replace the $ values with your settings.
